Our Take

Joanna Newsom, the whimsical woodland nymph of the indie folk world, returns with her highly anticipated album, "Ys." This five-track masterpiece is a meandering musical journey through enchanted forests, mystical creatures, and introspective musings.

Newsom's ethereal vocals flutter and soar like a flock of birds, weaving intricate tales of love, loss, and longing. Her harp playing is nothing short of mesmerising, creating an otherworldly atmosphere that transports listeners to a realm beyond imagination.

The standout track, "Emily," is a sprawling epic that clocks in at over 12 minutes long. Newsom's lyrics are poetic and profound, exploring themes of mortality and the passage of time. The instrumentation is lush and orchestral, with sweeping strings and cascading harp arpeggios that build to a breathtaking crescendo.

Throughout "Ys," Newsom showcases her unparalleled songwriting skills and unique musical vision. Each track is a mini masterpiece, brimming with emotion and artistry.

In conclusion, Joanna Newsom's "Ys" is a triumph of imagination and creativity. It is a work of beauty and wonder that will leave you spellbound and wanting more. So grab your harp, put on your fairy wings, and prepare to be enchanted by the magical world of Joanna Newsom.
